General equilibrium effects of increasing productivity in Philippine manufacturing, with special reference to food processing/ - p.223-244 - Vol. 15 No. 2 Second Sem 1988 .
This paper investigates quantitatively the economy-wide effects of increasing productivity in the following Philippine industrial sectors: food manufacturers; light manufacturers, producing mainly consumer goods; and other manufacturers, consisting of intermediate and capital goods production. A computable general equilibrium framework is used, emphasizing intersectoral linkages in production between rural and urban households in their income generation and consumption patterns. The second section describes the structure of the general equilibrium model. The quantitative effects of an exogenous increase in total factor productivity in each of the three manufacturing sectors are discussed in the third section, comparing also their relative merits. The last section presents the conclusions
